I want a stand for my laptop to sit under my it while sitting upright in my recliner in the living room. Would this be suitable for this?

Yes. It fits around me quite comfortably with the legs open. Plus there is always the option to fold in the legs and it will still sit quite comfortably on your lap. Hope I helped

Yes, it will sit across you nicely and fold up to slide under the recliner when you are done. I use it will I sit on my sofa all the time.

I guess it would depend on the size of the recliner. Yes, I use it in a recliner with the footrest up all the time. I also have a table that is just a little wider than the stand so I can place the adjustable table with my laptop computer on it next to the recliner when I get up.

this is a good stand to consider since it is foldable.....and you can take it with you. I believe the thickness or size does not matter, and it should work w/ your compaq.... the smaller the better.

Laptop yes. I would not be inclined to place on it any kind of free-standing monitor since it is not level and the tray swings out of the way very easily. Otherwise for an elderly man, this is one of the best things I ever got him since he can put his legs up and not move the tray out of the way. In 2 or 3 years he has actually worn the finish off in one small area from multiple daily use reading, card playing, etc.

If your laptop is 9x13", it will overhang the platform slightly either at the back corners of the laptop or the front. If you're putting the stand in a corner against two walls you probably won't have room to tilt the display on the laptop back without the front of the laptop overhanging the front of the stand. Also, the feet are slick and it tends to slide around on a smooth surface so that could be a problem if you are typing on the laptop.

I think the seat would be too deep, and the back reclines just enough that you would not be straight up. That said, I use my laptop in the chair everyday, but not a desktop.

I would have to say no. I utilize it to keep my laptop on top up to a size 17" and it sits well. I do use a keyboard but it does not fit under it.

It would not be comfortable. Should be used with a chair. The laptop would be better on even a kitchen table. Sorry

I don't know why I ended up a reviewer I did not purchase the corner stand I bought the rectangular stand. If you have a docking station I don't see why it wouldn't work for a laptop.

Yes.Not really designed for it. There is a fake leather inset and I don't know how it would do with the heat over a long period. My son has the square table with his laptop on it and it's doing ok though.

Definitely. I use it for my 17" Dell laptop, and this stand is only slightly smaller than my laptop.

This is a complete guess, but I'm thinking it would be too heavy. Even if it works at first, I'll bet it would start to sag soon. It's a good stand for my Asus tablet at less than half that weight.

You probably could, but if you are looking for a good lap stand I suggest a padded USB powered cooling stand, this is meant more for sitting on a desk.

Are you talking about a 36" Toshiba or similar (I used to have one)? I'd say this stand would probably support it, since it has a center partition. But it is just 3/4" particle board, so I wouldn't swear to it.

Believe it or not--yes. I just brought my laptop down to try it out. There is a slight wobble but that's possibly because i don't have the laptop secured in the straps, etc. I just set it on top. I'm not sure this would replace my standing desk/ledge, because it's not completely motionless, but it does completely hold a laptop sturdily enough to type. I hope that helps! (and note, the laptop in question is fairly heavy--older vintage MacBook Pro, fwiw.)

This stand is really made for a flat device such as an Android tablet, or an iPad. I feel it is sturdy enough to hold about any small portable device or computer, but I'm not sure how you would plan on sitting a computer that folds on it. The biggest negative factor I can see is that it might be too narrow to effectively hold a computer which is wider than my Nexus 10.

I frequently use mine with laptop and mouse on my lap and not resting on a chair. It's reasonably sturdy and I believe would meet your need. I am very pleased with this product.
